<P>
NetLS and NCS are provided as part of the operating system distribution
for HP-UX. HP-UX users should insure that both the NCS and NetLS
components of their operating system have been installed. If not they
should be installed and started from your O/S vendor's distribution
media.
<P>
The HP-UX 8.0x operating system contains an older and incompatible
version of the network license server daemon (netlsd). Users of this
operating system must run the install_lsk or install_lsk.sh script from
the Data Explorer distribution media (see <A HREF="#HDRHPLITP">"Installing a
License Server for HP Workstation from Tape"</A>
or <A HREF="#HDRHPLICD">"Installing a License Server for HP Workstation from
CD-ROM"</A>).
This script will detect the
older version and replace it with a current version of netlsd which is
delivered on the Data Explorer distribution media.
<P>
HP-UX 9.0x users do not need to run the NetLS installation script and
may proceed with the section <A HREF="insgu016.htm#HDRHPCFG">8.3 , "Configuring
a Data Explorer License for an HP Workstation"</A>
once the NetLS software is up and running.
<P>
HP users can refer to the following documents for assistance in
installing and configuring NetLS and NCS:

Tape distributions of Data Explorer contain three tar format files. The first
contains two install scripts (<TT>installdx</TT>,
<TT>install_lsk</TT>) and a PostScript file documenting the Network
Computing System (<TT>ncs_ps.Z</TT>). The second contains the Data Explorer
installation tree which contains Data Explorer for all supported architectures.
The third file contains NetLS license server installation kits for each
supported architecture.
<P>
To install the license server, log in as root, insert the tape in the
drive, and type:
<PRE>
cd /tmp
tar xvf &lt;device&gt; install_lsk
&#46;/install_lsk
</PRE>
<P>
&lt;device&gt; is the appropriate tape device for the operating system
from which you run <TT>install_lsk</TT>. Example HP-UX tape devices are:
<PRE>
/dev/rmt/0
</PRE>
<P>
Please follow the instructions presented by <TT>install_lsk</TT>
carefully. In
particular, when asked to give the name of the tape device, be sure to
give the name of the non-autorewinding tape drive, examples of which are
provided by the script. Also, if at anytime during the tape installation
you are asked to mount the next tape, just press the &lt;ENTER&gt; key
to have the installation continue normally.
<P>
<H3><A NAME="HDRHPLICD" HREF="insgu032.htm#PToC_66">Installing a License Server
for HP Workstation from CD-ROM</A></H3>
<P>
CD-ROM distributions of Data Explorer contain a mountable file system that
includes the installation scripts (installdx.sh for Data Explorer and
install_lsk.sh for the NetLS license server software), the software
itself (in tar format) and documentation.
<P>
To install the license server, log in as root, insert the distribution
media in the drive, and type:
<PRE>
mkdir /cdrom
</PRE>
<P>
Mount the CD on /cdrom. Mount the disk by entering the following
command:
<PRE>
mount -r -t cdfs &lt;CD-ROM-Device&gt; /cdrom
</PRE>
where &lt;CD-ROM-device&gt; is the actual name of the CD-ROM drive on
your system. A typical name is <TT>/dev/dsk/2s0</TT>.
<P>
Type:
<PRE>
cd /cdrom
&#46;/install_lsk.sh
</PRE>
<P>
<P><B>Note: </B>On HP-UX systems, the file names will appear capitalized and
include a version number (e.g. INSTALL_LSK.SH&#59;1). If this is the case,
then you must enter:
<PRE>
'./INSTALL_LSK.SH&#59;1'
</PRE>
(including the single quotes) instead of <TT>./install_lsk</TT>.
